Anzac Day 2014 – A little grey and wet, but that’s how we like it! A massive thank you to Manly SLSC who invited us to comemorate the day with them in the club. We hope we can do the same next year, we really appreciated it! B&Bers showed up this morning to swim and...

Hello, Bishop here. Another lovely swim this morning. Water was a barmy 27.6 degrees, smiles on lots of faces… but hard to impress Statler and Waldorf from the Muppets…   JP did the early swim and still looks like he is asleep. Clearly the girl behind (Ms Jones) did not want to be in the...

It was a perfect morning for Jules Isbill’s return visit today! If it wasn’t for Jules and her lovely partner Michael, this amazing daily drama wouldn’t exist. She started the B&B swim off over 5 years ago and worked hard to make it the inclusive, friendly, popular activity it is now. Thank you Jules and...

Former Monday blogster reporting for duty. And the story of the day, amazingly, was not that I was back. Or royalty. It was waves….     ……Lots of waves……       …..Bold and Beautiful dumping waves…   But even though some of us are IRONMAN standard like Sarah Eade (Congrats again!)   Make sure...

Bishop of Manly here… What a privilege to swim with you fine people every morning. Mine starts with a 6:45am wake up, check on my daughter and kiss my beautiful wife good morning…   Then down to end of the street to be greeted this. Let there be light!   Here we find Hon securing...
